Any chance of some crit here? It's the first time i've tried using blood (fake :D)

Hi guys. The other day I had a go at imitating a photograph for learning purposes. I've posted it online for critique and also linked to the original image. What are your thoughts on recreating these images for learning purposes? Would you ask permission before you attempted the shot...

I'm there all weekend as a spectator as usual. Bunch of us are going down camping with plenty of beer and bbq. I doubt the camera will get used that much as a 200mm is a little short for Silverstone. Camping at Whittlebury :)

That's pretty shoddy. I recently sold a damaged Canon 70-200 F4 and sent it direct to Lehmanns, they then sent the buyer the bill and shipped it off to him repaired all in the same week, so that was excellent service. Hence why I sent them my camera ;) If it get's to me before Friday...

Thanks for trying. For some reason it's always engaged from our work phone. I've emailed an address I found on the site and have had a reply so thats good. Unfortunatley the estimate is quite pricey :(

Hi there. 2 weeks ago I emailed someone at this company about a fault with my camera and they said just send it in and we'll check it over. So last week I sent it. I have not yet heard from the company, I can't ring them as it's ALWAYS engaged and their web enquiry form doesn't work. This...

Wez. Don't sell your gear! Try having a dabble in other topics than your norm. In the few months i've been doing photography i've done all sorts and there's still lots that I haven't touched. So far I keep going back to motorsport :) Took your old 30D to Croft last weekend and it's excellent...

Loan from my Dad :D Paying back £200 a month for 6 months then i'll get something else ;) I feel like i've been shafted BUT when i use it for the first time this Sunday it'll be worth it :D

Dunno what i'm getting bought for me. But I did treat myself to an EF 70-200mm f2.8 L IS USM on Sunday :) My butthole hurts now though :(

Sorry to hear this. I'm a regular on their forums and have had many dealings with them in the past regarding faulty goods. I've recently had a faulty motherboard from them but they refunded straight away as I had already purchased another. Also had a faulty Logitech G25 which they replaced...

I'm planning on attending this. Also want to go on the Friday. Will I have chew getting my 30D and lens in as a normal visitor?

After a bit of research i've come to the same conclusion. But I may go with the 2x instead of the 1.4x. I've been using 200mm max for the past 6 months and think it's fantastic so I can continue to use that on tracks such as Croft and Knockhill. For tracks like Silverstone then the 2x will be...

Haha... very mixed views here then. So basically I can go with any by the sounds of it :p

Thanks mate. Still going for the 400mm I think. Got a 24-70mm lens also. Only gap i'm missing is 70-100mm which I don't think i'll miss?
